Well this was a fun first for me.

500 miles into break-in, about 90% "city" driving (about as city as it gets where I live) so I decide to do a 2nd gear pull getting onto the highway. Get a lot of traction control intervention which was unusual, followed by a bunch of lights, an EPC, and limp mode. After pulling over, turning it off, turning it back on, turning off and back on again, it drives fine. No lights.

Got back on it again later but was maybe too scare, nothing logged so I assume I wasn't on the gas, only got to 11psi. Assume I wouldn't see that much boost if there was a blown coupler or something.

Cant' tell why though. Didn't overboost, didn't over rev, fuel pumps seem fine, no knock, but cylinder shutdown.

OK, happened again. Same deal, highway 2nd gear pull starting around 3.5k rpm. I'm just lighting the tires on fire, traction control goes bananas and then it shuts down. I don't see anything wrong in this log so I'm inclined to believe 2nd gear pulls just aren't my cars bag.

Furthermore, I got the car re-started and promptly did a 3rd gear pull with great success. Soooo, no worries??
